Page 238In our experiments, the specimen deformation amplitude and frequency have
been kept sufficiently low as to allow a constant temperature to be maintained
during the fatigue experiment. In these conditions, isothermal crack growth is the
factor ...

Page 280Introduction of the effect of local correlations among chains to obtain the real
network behavior was first made by Ronca and Allegra^ , successfully explaining
the experimental results of uniaxial tension and compression of amorphous ...

Page 317Are the theoretical stress-temperature profiles consistent with experimental ones,
particularly with regard to shape and valley width? An experimental technique
suitable for our study is that of crystallization under stress, by which a network is ...
